it would be more of a front blunt if you ask me. also, there are front tails btdub. i’m looking at it from a skateboard perspective.

there calling it back tail because you cant really blunt on a wakeboard and thats the way a back tail looks. on a front tail his front would be going forwards. makes sense

LOL why do you keep on hitting wakeskaters gaps after them and insist on doing the same tricks they did on a wakeboard and then even try to call it a skateboard trick which isnt even the right trick.

dude you say wakeskaters. but im pretty sure andy pats is the only one to front board that thing which is fucking insane but he definantly didnt have his shit tweaked out on his tail like that so i suggest you accept the fact that he is completely on his tail on that sketchy ass thing, sliding the way he would be on a back tail, and you cant call it a front tail because a front tail is like a lipslide and you cant call it a blunt because you cant blunt on a wakeboard. but being the legit police and not fuckin respecting the gnarlyness of these dudes that shred any winch spot harder than you or anyone else ever will is fucking retarted. take a picture of you even front boarding that thing and get a fucking cover shot, then talk shit. until then dont hate on shredtown cause they represent wakeboarding the way it should be. its there way of life man get used to seein them around and enjoy it. no one else has ever rode a wakeboard the way shredtown and crew does. killyoself

i dont think he is hating on just shredtown! he is hating on wakeboarding. wakeskaters hit this spot way more than they do. ben horan and russell brightwell have also frontboard that spot and it not gnarly at all to hit this spot on a wakeboard.
and it would just be called a frontboard not a tail slide you have to be locked into the nose or tail for it to be called that.

tru that i forgot about beni and never even seen russells footy. but that spot looks sketchy either way, and whatever you wanna call it doesnt really matter in the end huh.. its how that mustve felt.. and by the looks of it, it felt smooth and steezy as they come
